Welcome, one and all, to the newest episode of The Film Stage Roundtable, a spin-off podcast from the madmen who bring you The Film Stage Show.

On this show we devote ourselves purely to the discussion of topics and issues related to film culture as a whole. On this week’s show we talk through director’s cuts and if they are actually an improvement, how lawsuits effect a feature film’s attention, then we get dark talking about painful deaths.

Give a listen, and then share your thoughts on Twitter and Facebook. Let us know what you think, and what you want to hear about next. Subscribe on iTunes (if you are subscribed to The Film Stage Show, you’ll get it in the same feed) or see below to stream download (right-click and save as…).
